the manner in which it performs the services required of it by the terms of this contract.
Contractor assumes exclusively the responsibility for the acts of its employees as
they relate to the services to be provided during the course and scope of their employment.
11. Contractor agrees to maintain the confidentiality of any information which may
be obtained in connection with this work. County shall respect the confidentiality
of information furnished by Contractor to County.
12. If, through any cause, Contractor shall fail to fulfill , in timely and proper

such termination and specifying the effective date of such termination. Without prejudice
to the foregoing, Contractor agrees that if, prior to the termination or expiration
of this contract, upon any final or interim audit by County concluding that Contractor
has failed in any way to comply with any requirements of this contract, then Contractor

to deduct such sums from whatever amounts remain undisbursed by County to Contractor
pursuant to this contract) ; if this contract shall have terminated or expired, and

deduct such sums from whatever amounts remain undistributed by County to Contractor
pursuant to this or any other contract between the County and Contractor.
13. Contractor shall comply with all applicable laws, ordinances, and codes of federal,
state and local governments in performing any of the work embraced by this contract.

Contractor in connection with this contract or the services rendered pursuant thereto
shall vest in County, and shall be returned to County at the expiration or termination
of the contract.
15. County shall assign a liaison to Contractor with respect to the performance of
this contract. If any adjustment in line items in the attached budget is requested
by Contractor, such adjustment may be made upon receipt by Contractor of the written
approval of the liaison department . Such budget adjustment shall not alter (1) the
basic scope of services or other performance to be provided under this contract, (2)
the time of performance of any act hereunder, or (3) the total amount of money allocated
hereunder.
16. Contractor agrees to comply with all requirements which are now, or may hereafter
be, imposed by the funding government with respect to the receipt and disbursement
of the funds referred to in Exhibit B, as well as such requirements as may be imposed
by County. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Contractor agrees that
it will not use funds received pursuant to this agreement, either directly or indirectly,
as a contribution in order to obtain any federal funds under any federal or state programs
without prior written approval of County.
17. Contractor agrees that no person shall on the ground of race, religion, national
origin, sex, age or handicapped condition, be excluded from participation in, be denied
the benefits or, or be subjected to discrimination under, any program or activity funded
in whole or part with funds made available to Contractor by County pursuant to this
contract.
18. Contractor and County recognize that unforeseen events may cause significant increases
in the costs to be borne by Contractor in rendering services hereunder and in otherwise
performing this contract. If the Board of Supervisors determines that the Contractor
has incurred unforeseen significant costs which, if not paid, will interfere substantially
with Contractor ' s performance hereunder, and reimbursement thereof is necessary in
order to prevent undue hardship to the recipients of Contractor's services, and such
costs were beyond the Contractor's control , this contract may be amended to alter the
fee-for-service rate or line-item budget and to make such other changes therein as
may be necessary or appropriate to accomplish the foregoing.
19. This contract can be amended only by written agreement of the parties hereto.
